If I try to download the some http files, Then wget
works just fine (eg: wget download_link
). But when i try to download https files using wget
then I'm getting the following error
http request sent
403 forbidden
My problem is, I can't download http files in my college wifi. So when I try to download the file, wget
will send the http request to the server. Eventually, the download will be blocked.
To download the https file, I've tried using the following command
wget https://download_link
How to download https files (username and password is there in the download link too)?
Are there any extra options needed with wget
?
wget
command you say were failing - here it would have been great to have had the exact output from the command, for debugging.
